Vodacom Cup
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Vodacom Cup is a rugby union competition in South Africa, which is contested between February and May on an annual basis. The competition is third in rugby union in South Africa, behind the Super 14 and the Currie Cup. It actually runs at roughly the same time as the Super 14 and is thus an important developmental competition for South African rugby. It was first held in 1998, and was won in its first year by Griqualand West.
